<<<Do theMarine antennas really make that much of a difference?>>> On WTP, we have the UFO type TV antenna from West Marine (about $130). It is mounted near the mast top, 30' above waterline. Easy to install, it has substantially improved reception as we travel the ICW, and we're very happy with it. Not as good but a whole lot cheaper than Sat-TV.
